Purge All Cache |
Click this to purge the server cache for the selected server or cluster. All cached content is cleared. When you change certain configuration such as updating or changing certificates, changing the IP addresses of web servers, or modifying the rewriter configuration, you are prompted to purge the cache. The cached objects must be updated for users to see the effects of configuration changes. If Access Gateways are in a cluster, you need to manage the purge process so your site remains accessible to your users. You must apply configuration changes to one member of a cluster. When its status returns to healthy and current, issue the command to purge its cache. Then apply the changes to the next cluster member. IMPORTANT:Do not issue a purge cache command when an Access Gateway has a pending configuration change. Wait until the configuration change is complete. |
